Hi,

yes, i create the the VXLAN Interfaces first, then install Cloudstack.

  *
vxlan1026 on bridge brdrbd1
  *
vxlan1028 on bridge brcsmm1

i think those are good.

the consoleproxy vm is now up.
but the secondarystoragevm still failing.

# Physical Network
Isolation Method: VXLAN
VLAN/VNI: 200-299
Traffic Type: Guest, Management, Public, Storage
Range: Zone

## Traffic Types (Here i don’t know if i have to setup a Label)
# Guest
Network Label: „Use default gateway“

# Management (Should be native on preconfigured Bridge brcsmm1)
Network Label: brcsmm1
Pod1 VLAN/VNI: vlan://untagged

# Public  (Here i don’t know if i have to setup a Label, and/or VNI)
Network Label: „Use default gateway“
VLAN/VNI: vxlan://896

# Storage (Should be native on preconfigured Bridge brdrbd1)
Network Label: brdrbd1
Pod1: no VLAN/VNI

Interfaces:

  *
lo
  *
eno1
  *
eno2
  *
eno3
  *
eno4
  *
brdrbd1
     *
vxlan1026
  *
brcsmm1
     *
vxlan1028
     *
CS vnet1 (why?)
  *
CS cloud0 (guest?)
     *
CS vnet0 (why?)
  *
CS brvx-896 (public?)
     *
CS vnet2  (why?)
     *
CS vxlan896

All interfaces in the list starting with CS are created by cloudstack.


Best Regards,
Jan

Also, please show the output of: /ip -d link show dev vxlan1026/

Did you create that vxlan interface before installing cloudstack?
